midway is a great airport, and a lot easier to get out of / in to since it's much smaller and less busy than ohare, but it's not necessarily cheaper to fly into midway anymore.
I usually get the best deals going from Newark to O'Hare, which is actually inconvenient for me since I'm coming from Brooklyn and going to the South Side.
It's also much cheaper to rent a car in Chicago, which cancels out the inconvenience (besides having to drive through the 90/94 which seems to have gotten a SHITLOAD towards the city from OHare worse in the past 5 years)
If you can't rent, the nice thing is that both airports have the trains pulling straight into them
which aren't as great as NY trains as far as reach, but they're a hell of a lot cleaner (and they actually go all the way to the airport.. no shuttles)I usually get a round trip for about $180 on AA from expedia or orbitz. I've seen $165 on ATA, but I'm too damned tall for ATA seats, so I don't fuck with em.
Oh, and when you're doing a search at the sites, use NYC and CHI instead of airport names... those are the city call letters (like the airport call letters, MDY, JFK, etc)
And finally... a good flight search site that actually searches like 400 other sites... http://flights.sidestep.com/air/…
I just checked for an NYC to CHI from the 28th til the 31st and they have a Continental for $131 round trip (coming out of long island or something, which i've never done)
Good luck, Enjoy the weather.... Now time for some coffee
